Sometimes when you trawl the internet it takes you to strange places and unlocks things in the vaults of your mind that you thought had gone forever.

That happened to me today when I stumbed upon a trailer for Hawk The Slayer - a cult film that was so bizarre and at times awful that it was actually brilliant.

Included in the cast of this 1980 film were Bernard Bresslaw, Jack Palance, Roy Kinnear and Mrs Victor Meldrew.

I loved this film, and finding this clip has inspired me to hunt it down again and relive those memories.

Here's the best bits in three minutes - allegedly.

More suprising to me was that the lead character Hawk was actually played by no other than John Terry - aka Christian Shepard of Lost fame... small world!
